EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: A Glimpse into the Past: The Plains Viscacha of the 1960s. This photograph, taken in the 1960s, showcases a family of Plains Viscachas (Lagidium viscacia), a rodent species belonging to the Chinchilla family. The image transports us back in time, offering a rare glimpse into the natural history of these fascinating creatures. The Plains Viscacha, also known as the Andean Viscacha, is native to the high-altitude grasslands and puna ecosystems of South America. They are social animals, living in large colonies of up to 50 individuals, which they call burrows, called "warrens." These burrows are intricately designed, with multiple entrances and exits to help the viscachas escape predators. In this photograph, we see a family of viscachas huddled together, likely taking refuge from the harsh weather or predators. The young viscachas are seen clinging to their mother's sides, while the adults keep a watchful eye over their brood. Their soft, thick fur, which ranges from light brown to gray, helps them blend seamlessly into their grassland habitat. The Plains Viscacha plays a crucial role in the high-altitude ecosystems they inhabit. As herbivores, they help control the growth of grasses and contribute to the nutrient cycle by dispersing seeds in their droppings. Their burrows also provide shelter for other animals, such as foxes and snakes. This photograph is a testament to the rich biodiversity of the past and serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving the habitats of species like the Plains Viscacha for future generations to enjoy.
